TAMPA, Fla. — Hours after Donald Trump appeared at the grand opening of his new hotel in Washington, D.C., the celebrity chef who once had big plans for a restaurant there spent the afternoon with Hillary Clinton instead.

José Andrés appeared on Wednesday afternoon at an outdoor rally with Clinton and sharply criticized Trump for his rhetoric about immigrants.

"Today I could be in a certain hotel in Washington, D.C. opening a restaurant inside,"Andrés said. "Here I am, not even mentioning him.

"We’re not supposed to mention him until he apologizes to every Latino… every Mexican and every person he has insulted,” he added.
